Impact Hub Basel and CET Business Lab are excited to invite you to an interactive workshop on bringing circular economy into practice!
During this session we will deep-dive into the circular design principles, mindset, activities and business models, and explore together how to use these when designing new products and services.
Whether you are a professional interested in learning more about circular economy as a business opportunity for your organization, or an entrepreneur/social changemaker working on a circular economy project; this will be a hands-on opportunity to gain practical insights, ask those burning questions, and explore the collaboration opportunities with CET Buisness Lab.

Pavlina Pavlova brings strong background in environmental impact and sustainability. Currently co-leading the CET Business Lab and setting an innovative exploration thrive.

This summer, Impact Hub Basel is moving into its own space! Let's all join together to make it feel like home. We will walk together from our current digs (Launchlabs in Gundeldingerfeld) to our new place (Münchensteinerstrasse 274a, 4053 Basel) in--hopefully--the evening spring sunshine. Once we get to the new Impact Hub Basel, we will enjoy an apero together.
After the huge success of our Christmas event when you, our community, brought many delicious treats to share, we would love it if you brought something with you this time too. And of course, we will provide goodies as well. Keeping up the Swiss tradition of taking salt and bread to housewarming parties, we are adopting the loose theme of “salt and bread”. This can be anyting savoury...or sweet (we'll believe you if you tell us you put salt in it)... let your imagination run wild!

Imagine if we created an economic system built on abundance rather than scarcity. Taking advantage of the latest digital tools, computational power, material science, biomimicry and a somewhat older idea - the commons - this new system could have the power to transform how we live and work. System Reset is a feature-length documentary which explores this story of change in our economy.
Shot in London, Amsterdam and Barcelona, this film is a DIF (Disruptive Innovation Festival) 2018 exclusive. It features some of the leading thinkers in materials, economics, the commons movement, FabLabs, digital citizenship, urban planning and architecture. Don't miss this opportunity to see them collectively weave a picture of how our economy could operate!
And to support a better economy, we would appreciate it if you could support us with a small PWYC donation (pay what you can) in order for us to continue our pursuit of bringing impact to Basel - and to inspire and create change with you!

Storytelling and Gift Sharing
Bring something that you are ready to pass on to someone else. Tell us why you would like to give it to someone instead of throwing it away. Of course it could also be that this gift would not like to part with you, so please don't be hurt if no one chooses it.
Bring-Your-Own
This year we had the pleasure of providing you with healthy and sustainable food and snacks during our events, which is why this time we would like you to co-create the buffet with you. We would like to ask all event participants to bring a little something for the buffet - this way we can enjoy a big feast with a huge variety in foods and snacks from different cultures and tastes to share. As usual, the drinks will be provided by the Impact Hub team.

Social entrepreneurs (SE) aim to implement solutions to social, cultural, or environmental issues. But what do they need to generate good for society, while also considering profit for long-term sustainability?

With this event we are launching our new initiative #CESwitzerland, in partnership with the Swiss Impact Hubs, Sanu Durabilitas and support from the MAVA Foundation. This program aims to accelerate the transition to a circular economy at local and national level and targets interested individuals, start-ups and companies.
